The Bank of Ghana has made key changes to various heads of department while still merging\u00a0some units.<\/p>\n

Information available to JoyBusiness indicates the changes would take effect from October 2, 2017.<\/p>\n

Changes<\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Research and Statistics Department has been combined into one department, under a new name of Research Department. It would have\u00a0three key divisions; Monetary Policy Analysis, Statistics, and Ghana Risk Sharing Systems for Agriculture lending.<\/p>\n

The Communications Department and Protocol services have been moved into the Secretary\u2019s department to be headed by Secretary of the Bank. It will also have\u00a0the following divisions; Board of Operations Divisions, Protocol and CSR and Communications Divisions.<\/p>\n

Procurement and Transport Department Estate and Projects Department and\u00a0Information Department, as well as the Publication Services Department, have been\u00a0combined into one Department; Corporate\u00a0Management\u00a0and Services\u00a0(CMS) Department.<\/p>\n

It will have\u00a0three key divisions i.e\u00a0Procurement and Transport Divisions, Estate and Project Division andPublication and Records Division.\u00a0 The Bank has also created a technical Advisory and Internal Investigation Unit in the governor’s Department.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Reasons<\/b><\/p>\n

According to JoyBusiness\u00a0sources, the changes are to further sharpen the focus of the Bank\u2019s internal processes, enhance functionality, improve synergies among departments and to support the delivery of the Bank\u2019s mandate.<\/p>\n

Staff changes<\/b><\/p>\n

Information picked up by JoyBusiness indicates that John Gyamfi would be the head of Currency Management to be supported by Peter Tease, while Catherine Ashiley would be an Advisor at the department.<\/p>\n

Raymond Amanfo would still handle the Banking Supervision Department, however, JoyBusiness is learning\u00a0that Osei Gyasi would take over the department as the head would retire soon. He is likely to be supported by Elliot Amoako.<\/p>\n

Francis Blankson is also the head of that Financial Stability Department, with\u00a0Dr.\u00a0Joseph France expected to\u00a0take over when the former\u00a0retires.\u00a0<\/p>\n
